Being Yourself Always-Osho
Osho, while at school as a small boy, happened to see a wresteling competition, conducted district wise. He refelcts on that match in order to educate his followers on the importance of 'being yourself'.
The most famous wrestler who was to become a champion, lost to an ordinary man who did have any kind of a recognition.
The wrestler's defeat was shocking to the whole crowd, which burst out laughing after a while. The wrester too joined the crowd in laughter. His laughter was uproarious and the crowd wondered at his most unexpected reaction.
Osho, later approached the wrestler and said, “This is strange and I loved it. It was totally unexpected"
The
man
replied,
“It
was
totally
unexpected
and
that
is
why
I
also
laughed.
I
had
never
imagined
that
I
would
be
defeated
by
an
ordinary
man.
I
found
the
whole
thing
ridiculous
and
thats
why
I
laughed"
Years
later,
when
Osho
visited
that
town,
where
the
man
lived,
the
wrestler,
who
was
an
old
man
came
to
meet
him.
He
told
Osho,
“Do
you
remember
me?
As
a
small
child
you
came
up
to
me
and
said,
'You
are
the
real
winner
and
the
other
is
defeated.
You
have
defeated
the
whole
crowd'
Since
then
I
have
not
been
unable
to
forget
your
face
as
well."
Osho says that he was unable to forget the man who laughed and clapped his hands in the crowd, participating.
Osho goes on to say, that it requires tremendous courage to 'be yourself' in success and failure, praise and condemnation.
When
one
knows
his
true
self,
such
courage,
which
facilitates
one
to
be
himself
at
all
phases
emerges.
